The Three Step Approach to Nail Polish Application

If you are looking for the easiest way to paint your nails, it is probably going to be the "three step approach". Many people find that this method delivers smooth, even color without a lot of trouble. To use it, simply paint the center of your nail first, using a quick, firm stroke running from the center of the nail outward. Once this step is done, repeat it for both the right and the left sides of the nail. This three step process will give good results and help you apply nail polish with confidence.

Try to make sure that when you do the sides of your nail, you don’t go too far over. If you do, you may get polish on the skin that surrounds your nail. If this does happen, try to remove it right away by using a cotton swab dipped in a little bit of polish remover. After your first coat, let the polish dry a little bit and then repeat the process the same way for the second coat. This technique also works well for putting a base and a top coat on nails.

Essie's The Art of Spring Collection 2010

Spring is just around the corner, which means pretty soon we’ll be trading in our dark nail polishes for softer colors. With that being said, feast your eyes on Essie’s “The Art of Spring Color Collection” for spring 2010. The collection consists of a palette of shades created to compliment the essence of spring.


Spring ushers in a warm, high-spirited bouquet of pretty shades and sultry silhouettes. At the Spring 2010 shows, designers expressed a super-sexy return to elegance with a pop art palette of colors. Body-clinging pieces with flurries of tulle, silk and organza flowed alongside crepe skirts, linen kimonos and shantung gowns in never-ending shades of lilac, rose and cerise.


“When I go to the fashion shows, I don’t just see clothes, I see artistic expression and color,” says Essie Weingarten, founder and president of Essie Cosmetics, Ltd. “Art and fashion go hand in hand, and this season’s collections reminded me of the pop art fashion explosion. My spring color collection is a reflection of that movement.”


The mini set includes four juicy colors - Pop Art Pink, Lilacism, Tart Deco and Red Nouveau!


Beginning February 2010, the Essie Art of Spring Collection will be available at essie.com, fine spas, salons and beauty destinations nationwide.
